How can I avoid being sad when I end my novel?
*Sighs.* I am ending my novel in 8 chapters. I have it mapped out. I just know I’ll miss my characters and I hate knowing that I’ll actually have to sleep at night, opposed to always thinking about them before I sleep. I’m not writing a sequel to it because it isn’t needed, but will miss my characters and everything of the like. I’m only a minor so I don’t want to publish it for at least a couple years, so forget sharing it with the world yet. I have 28 pages so far (I have 12 chapters, so yes it’s short but I’ll probably have longer chapters later,) and I have a 21,827 word count o.O. How can I cope? Anyone have any similar experiences? Cried when they ended their novel? How did you feel when writing the words "The End?" Thank you! How can I avoid being sad when I end my novel?
- OCD.
When I finished my novel- I CRIED MY HEART OUT.
It wasn’t exactly when I wrote The End. It was at night, when I sat down and asked myself "What’s Leo going to do next?" (leo’s my fav character) and I realized that he WON’T do anything next. I hate it. I hate it like hell. But, you’ll always be able to read your novel again and again and edit it (that’s a long process, you’ll almost hate your characters when you’re done with that)
I coped with starting another series. Your writing has to have developed. Don’t worry, if you start yourself a new project, you’ll be busy thinking about that one to feel sorry for the one that ended.

I was a victim of a brutal attack (please read)?
A few months ago I was seeing this guy my mother worked with, John. My mother had hooked us up because she thought he was a really nice guy and they were very good friends. Anyway a week after seeing him I found out he had a girlfriend. I happened to personally know his girlfriend so I thought it would be best if I told her and I stopped talking to him (wouldn’t you want to know if your boyfriend was cheating on you?) So I texted her and she flipped out on me, and then he called me and flipped. I let it go and went to my best friends and a few hours later John called me asking me if we could talk about things. He told me he really liked me and that him and Kayla were officially done and that he was wrong for not breaking up with her, so I said "fine, i’ll talk to you but not for too long because I can’t be gone too long" so he came and picked me up from my best friends and he said that he had to do an erin real quick and I said alright but make it quick. so he drove me up to this apartment complex (river raisen, monroe michigan) and he told me his friends wanted to hangout with us and I said that I really couldn’t go inside because I couldn’t be gone too long from Sarah’s. and he said fine. a few minutes later my side of the car door opens. i look up and this girl grabs me by my hair and pulls me out of the car. when i’m out, John drives away. The girl ripped off the hood of my jacket and starts beating me. This black male (in his 20’s-30’s about 6′0) jumps in and knocks me to the cement. i’m face down onto the cement and he over and over again kick’s the back of my head (smashing my face) into the cement while John’s girlfriend is watching and spitting on me. The other girl was spitting on me too. I begged them to stop. I thought they were going to kill me. after they stopped and I had the strength to get up I ran to the nearest open place I could find (which happened to be a nursing home) the lady was really sweet and she called the police and I was rushed to the emergency room. ever since i’ve been afraid for my life. I’m too afraid to go out with my friends because I think they are setting me up. I’ve been having anxiety attacks. I knew bad things happened, but I never knew that people allowed bad things to happen… the police had made no effort to catch the two people that beat me. nor have they spoken with Kayla (john’s girlfriend, and the accomplice). I have heard from several of Kayla and John’s x-friends that they had payed these people to jump me. So far all I can do is press charges on John. I don’t feel like I got the justice I deserved. What can I do? How can I get that justice I deserved? Any tips? and how much trouble can they get in for this?
I am 16 years old and i’m tiny. I didn’t stand a chance. I felt helpless and I felt like they were going to beat me to death. I begged them to stop. here are photo’s of me the day after:

AND PARENTS; please tell your kids about what happened to me. A guy that me and my family trusted with everything set me up to get jumped by a man, and a girl. I could of been killed with the way they beat me. Nothing can ever cure the emotional pain i’ve been in. Tell your kid’s not to trust everyone and to make smart decisions because clearly I didn’t and I was stupid to of trusted him. I don’t want anyone to have to go through what I did.
maybe you should do some stuff like self defense and try to build up your confidence to not be scared and carry around a weapon such as a stun gun in these cases
I don’t have any purpose in life,no friends,no money,am depressed and have social anxiety,should I end it all?
I am a guy early 20s…Is there a painless way to die?
NOPE! Why don’t you start by Googling "FAILED SUICIDE ATTEMPTS",I think you’ll pull up some pretty scarey stuff…like how about 70% of people who try it FAIL!
How people who overdosed just ended up living,but RUINED their own liver….or the people that shot themselves,but lived…now their vegetables,disformed faces,or paralyzed,ect,ect The girl who threw herself infront of an Amtrack train,she too lived…but both her legs are GONE now:-( Story after story…very SCAREY,and it proves one thing…you are NOT in charge,even of death.
I am so sorry you are going through all this,I’ve been through it myself,so believe me,I do get it!
But you have to understand something…there’s only ONE person in charge of how/when you die…and that’s GOD,and if you try it,and it’s not "your time to go",then say HELLO WHEELCHAIR/BRAIN DAMAGE/MISSING LIMB/ECT/ECT
Pray,look for God,if you REALLY want to know why your here,and what the "purpose" is in all this…just look with all your heart:-)
In the meantime…know that you ARE loved…somebody is going to CRY when you die…somebody thinks about you ofton…even if you don’t know this/or don’t feel it.
Think about calling a suicide hotline,talk to someone who cares,they know what your feeling,my guess would be a lot of those volunteers have been where your at(and recovered)and that’s why they are volunteering there now.
Don’t try to mess with something(death)that you can NOT control the outcome of!
Good Luck:-)
If December 2012 is the end of the world, why the heck are they trying to put a hotel on the moon by 2019?
If its the end of the world, why are scientists still trying to come up with new things? If its the end, we should all stop paying our bills and say screw it. I think its all a load of crap and its just a way to get people in a panic. The world will end when it will end. God is the only one who knows when that will be. There is other things we need to be focused on instead of 2012.
I so agree with you. I think they are making up a bunch of CRAP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People shouldn’t listen to this CRAP ! because it makes them panic!!!!!!!!!
don’t worry about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Avoiding or escaping a feared situation reduces anxiety and ends up?
a) reinforcing the phobic behavior.
b) encouraging the person to seek treatment.
c) aggravating the symptoms of the disorder.
d) minimizing the anxiety until it disappears.
The answer is most definitely A
OCD? I have a habit that I cant get over. I must end a sentence when talking by repeating?
the last word 3 times. For example, "Where is the remote remote, remote?" Want to watch a new DVD DVD DVD? What is wrong with me? Is this OCD?
It could be, or you may just be a super hottt rain man!
What do you call the fear of bras?
Arachnophobia is the fear of spiders. Phobaphobia is the fear of fears. Im looking for the word for the irrational fear of a bra. It should end in the suffix "phobia" just like all other fears.
What kind of fear?
Fear of taking off someone’s bra? clasp=incursio…incursiophobia
Fear of wearing a bra? A bra is like a sheath=totonsi…totonsiphobia
Red spots on abdomen?
Let me say first off that I do have a Dr appt scheduled but its a month off and the ER will just do the quickest thing to get me in and out which is anxiety meds.. They thinks its the cure to everything.. So here is whats going on.
I have had stomach issues all my life. There is no record of surgery, but I had the scar and the witnesses. I have had many tests run with no clear cut answer. Dont eat this, take more of that. Nothing works. My bowels give me the most issues and its very painful. Recently I have developed pain under my right rib. Sharp jabs almost near the top center. Glabladder? Intestines? Blockage due to bowel issues? I dont know. Well, the weirdest thing..I have developed little pin prick dots of blood just below the surface. I can rub/scratch them away and they fill back up. They are not raised, just little dots. I had 1 about 6 months ago..now I have 6 randomly scattered from my lower abdomen to my chest. no scabs, no pain, just little dots of blood. It has me concerned. Can anyone give me any input as to what could be going on? Thanks.
They arent warty..no difference in the feeling of my skin except htat it looks like I took a needle and pricked myself. The blood never comes through the surface but you can scratch at it and it goes faint but then fills up brighter red. They are always there, never bigger, dont move, dont go away..just more are developing. Just tiny red spots. No itching. The stomach pains are getting worse though. Usually I can deal with it but not being regular has really taken its toll on me. Im naseated after almost every meal, im tired all the time. I know I have a low white cell blood count but they ruled out anemia a few years ago. I really just want some idea so when i go into the Dr I can give them a hint as military doctors never do more than necessary and they never dig too deep. Thanks.
No, Im constipated all the time. I go maybe once a week if Im lucky. Sometimes I will go two days in a row but thats rare and only if I drink a lot of coffee. I have painful gas and bowel movements. A friend who is a medic suggested Diverticulitis? Ive researched and it sounds like that, but the red spots are still mysterious to me.
I think you hit it on the head with : petechiae.
If anyone has any experience with what causes these (disease wise), let me know. Should I seek help before my Dr appt?
The red dots sound like they might be pettichia. Which are little spots of blood from broken vessles underneath the skin. As for your symptoms, do you have frequent bouts of diarhea? Cramping? If so, you may have Colitis. My husband has Colitis. It was so bad at times that we couldn’t really go far from the house, knowing he would have to use the bathroom at literally a moments notice.
Then, I found Acidopholus at the health food store. There are many kinds of Acidopholus, so you need to get the one that is refrigerated. Ask for assistance. Do not buy it at the pharmacy or the grocery store, as their Acidopholus is pretty useless. Anyway, take this up to 3 times a day. If you have Colitis, you should notice a difference within a day. If it turns out you do not have Coititis, the Acidolpholus will not harm you as it actually restores the normal balance of bacteria that belongs in your colon.
Try that until you get to your doctor. Also, take a picture of the red dots, so that you have it to take with you to your appt. Also, keep a diary of your daily symptoms,as well as your food intake. This will help you dr. get to the real issue much quicker.
Good luck to you.
I’m suffering a lot, should I keep hope or Should I just end my suffering now?
I will explain why this is in the spiritual section
Its just that I’m ill with borderline, and last year i got a psychotic disorder and very bad OCD, since then my life has been hell, I keep constantly suffering, I just feel like there will be no end to it, My pschiatrist says i have yet two meds to try, should i keep hope or should I give up on life/ kill myself.. Last year within a snaps time I got two very bad disorders, like someone switched a switch, ever since part of my brain is my worst enemy. He lives in the back of my brain and pulls horrible horrible intrusive thoughts into my head by visual and by speaking to me, Then he makes me obsess on them, Im tired of arguing with him,, Ive been doing so for a year, Im just tired, I want to be happy, I don’t want to suffer anymore I HATE HIM, somehow i feel its a he, like an unwanted spirit got glued inside me and i can hear him speak to me inside my head and give me horrible thoughts, the things i fear most in life, he puts me through the worse pain you can imagine, agony like my heart cant take this pain anymore, extreme guilt, excessive depression, he says the only way he will go away is if i kill myself.. And I’m begining to run out of options on medication and therapy, I feel I have no more hope, just tired, on top of that i am struggeling with addiction problems, I can’t take so much, I tried to I can’t… Should I still have hope? I found one of the methods to help myself from cutting is to wear Jesus on my wrist so now whenever i go to cut myself I feel if there was a god he would love and understand me and it makes me feel like not hurting myself
How I envy thy Who lives peacefully and happy, How I wish i was you, how I dearly wish I was happy again.. Life is so beautiful it will be a shame to end it at 22, its my birthday on Friday the best present i would ever imagine was to be happy
I DONT WANT TO BE MENTALLY ILL ANYMORE IM SICK Of It, IM TIRED IM NOT F****N RANTING I JUST CANT TAKE THIS ANYMORE,
You know it’s your illness that’s making you think like this, don’t you? Really, it’s an illness like any other, it can be managed, even the horrible pain.
Keep going with the meds, and get some good CBT.
It works but it does take time
How can I be happy with life?
I am so UNHAPPY and UNSATISFIED with my life. I think I have depression (for last 20 some years)…..I dont like Doctors so I dont go plus I have social phobias. I have never been married or had kids but can’t stand the thought of that either because of the responsibility. I am decent looking but women see I am so negative, they look the other way. I have money, nice home, decent job but am so unhappy What is life even worth if you can’t be happy and satisfied? I am thinking about just ending it.
accept the things that you cannot change and work on the things that you can. understand that all things will eventually end (including the hard times) and appreciate every precious moment that you have because each moment is a new opportunity- so make it count. what happens is all up to you
